My name is Mark Keenan and I live, with gratitude, on Mooro Nyoongar Boodjar in Western Australia.
​
I have always loved stories. The way they can bring joy and inspiration, sadness and heartbreak. And everything between.
​​
As a child growing up in country Western Australia, books were my escape, and written words were my expression. But writing took a back-seat when I decided to pursue a different path. Now, after decades working in the engineering sector, I have returned to writing. And it feels like home.
I am currently working on a full-length novel and a hybrid memoir.
